Motorcycle Camping Made Easy

Product description

For many of us heading out onto the open road, the benefits of being able to pitch a tent are innumerable, and the experiences almost always memorable, whether enjoying the camaraderie of like-minded rally-goers, or basking in the remote solitude of a perfect site well off the beaten path. Not only that, camping can considerably stretch your travel budget. This first guidebook for camping on two wheels is loaded with practical advice to help riders enjoy the whole experience. It covers issues such as assessing your current bike for space and load-carrying capacity, finding motorcycle-friendly campgrounds and rallies, planning and packing properly for your trip, dealing with “critters” at camp, preparing meals on wheels, mastering traditional camp skills like building a campfire, and caring for your equipment after you return home. An extensive resource directory lists dozens of equipment suppliers to orient you in the overwhelming sea of information available today on gear, luggage, clothing, and even trailers.
